Koprivnica-Križevci county occupies the Podravina — the Drava river corridor — in northern Croatia, between the Bilogora uplands and the Hungarian border. The Drava here is a braided lowland river with accessible public banks offering carp, catfish, pike, zander, asp, huchen and barbel. The river's gravel bars and backwaters create excellent habitat, and the Drava is one of Croatia's most productive specimen rivers for large catfish and asp.
The Koprivnica area has a network of gravel-pit lakes formed from Drava aggregate extraction — clear, deep waters holding pike, perch and carp. The Česma river rises in the county's eastern hills and holds chub and barbel in its upper reaches. Varaždin airport (serving the Podravina region) and Budapest international airport (90 minutes) are the nearest air links from the UK. Permits are issued by ŠRD Koprivnica and associated clubs.
